The embattled leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has restated his interest in the agitation for the parting of Biafra from Nigeria.
He said that he was not agitating for Biafra to secede from Nigeria because Biafra is quite older than Nigeria. All he is asking for is that Biafra return to the way it was before the military rule. He added that “It is Biafra or nothing; Nigerians knows that.”
It would be recalled that Kanu has been under detention since October 2015.Kanu claimed that the reason for his conception was for him to “save Biafrans”.
“I also promise that the Biafran race will be a cleaned-up nation and all the people of Biafra will come back home, if they are living outside the country of the new nation. Our people will no longer wander on the road again.
“How can I encourage the people of Biafra to work towards the upbringing of Nigeria, when we don’t speak the same language, don’t eat the same food and don’t have the same culture? In fact, if we come to their land to practise our culture and religion, we will be beheaded.
“Their women wear hijab, and Biafran women don’t, and on the point that our women don’t wear hijab and we don’t practise the same religion, they will see us as infidels and then, we will be beheaded. We are 100 per cent Christians. These people are Muslims who see killing as a culture.”
In Biafra where we originated from, it will be hard for our people to kill a human being, because in my language a human being is called MMANDU, which means in English language the beauty of life. Now, you can see it will never work, the only solution is Biafra.
